Note that level does still matter... (Destiny)
It wasn't a VIP public event, it was a patrol mission. Maybe they are the same now though, just not majors. I guess I should feel pretty good about killing something ~35 light above me solo, with other random patrol guys also shooting at me.
I hit 40 on my lunch break, did the first mission and unlocked stormcaller. Fantastic stuff here. I am however, still only at 201 light despite my best efforts. I am tempted to do a few crucible matches to earn some marks and infuse my ghost shell up to 190.
I also regret not running the weekly heroic 3 more times so I could get the dead orbit exotic class item from the faction quest. Ah well.

- They had that before. No clue why they would change it.
